Christmas window displays

 The Fortnum and Mason window displays are gorgeous. They have been based on paintings from the national gallery. It's like they've taken the gallery to the streets and have made 3D paintings using models and objects. A must see for everyone!!

Little Bits of Everything

I visited the Gagosian gallery today to see the 'Pop Up' exhibition. I felt extremely happy when I walked into this exhibition.  I saw the works of Andy Warhol, Dexter Dalwood, Takashi Murakami, Jeff Koons, Edward Rucha, Damian Hirst and many more. There were posters, catalogues, limited editions, artists'merchandise and, of, course art work. There were even a couple of handmade books which could come under the section of book arts. It was visually stimulating to see so many different styles of work under one roof. And to top it up, Dexter Dalwood, the artist himself, was there signing off copies of his new monologue.

Typography

The film 'Helvetica' was really inspiring. As soon as I left the lecture theatre, I started guessing and evaluating all the typography I could see around me. It motivated me even further to invent my own typface, and I'm sure this dream will become a reality soon enough!
